I don't post often, so I'm not sure if this is the best forum. My apologies, if not...I read a story about Sam Jones, where Bill Russell asked why Sam Jones why he didn't consistently perform at the level of West or Robertson - Russell felt he could. Jones said he didn't want that kind of responsibility every night. But when they absolutely needed him, he would step. I don't know if their games are that similar, but in this sense, is Irving the modern Jones?
